Wake Forest Newborn Photography | Baby Dani

Another precious baby girl! This is adorable little Dani. As you’ll see below, she has two adoring big brothers who are going to have so much fun with her. I can’t even imagine having two big brothers watching out for me. Dani is a lucky girl, and nobody better mess with her! Dani’s mom requested pinks, teals and yellows. She wanted a really colorful newborn photo session, so that’s what she got! All of my sessions are tailored towards what my client wants. I usually ask for color preferences before the session, and then style everything based on that. I have a HUGE collection of props. Headbands, hats, wraps, blankets, cute little outfits, buckets, baskets, etc. etc. Tons to work with so each session is unique and fits your personality.

Here are some of my favorites of sweet little Dani!

Raleigh Cary Baby Photographer | Baby Tate

I’m happy to share a peek at little Tate’s six month photo session! I’ve so enjoyed seeing this family over the years. Big brother also did my Baby’s First Year plan and came to me for newborn, six month and 1-year photos. And I’m happy little Tate is doing the same this year! He was a little grumpy on the day of his six month photo session, however we managed to cheer him up and get lots of smiles. Of course big brother cracked up Tate a lot too. We can always count on siblings to be goofy and get the laughs! 🙂

If you’re interested in learning more about my sessions for Baby’s First Year, please contact me. I’m happy to do both mini or full sessions depending on your budget and needs. Most of my older baby photo sessions take place outdoors at local parks, however in the colder months that can be hard. So I also do some in-studio older baby sessions too. We can tailor your session to fit your needs. Don’t hesitate to reach out to me for your baby’s first year session in Raleigh and Wake Forest!

Raleigh Durham Newborn Photography

I have a sweet little boy to share with you today. He has the best head of hair! I so enjoyed my time posing him and giving him some snuggles – this was pre-COVID of course! 🙂 He was absolutely stunning on some darker colors. The green was just gorgeous with his skin tone, as well as the dark blue, which ended up being my favorite. So much variety in his Raleigh newborn photo session, and just too many favorites!

If you’re expecting soon, please feel free to contact me about my multiple newborn session offerings. I have both mini and full newborn sessions that fit a variety of budgets and needs. We can include the family and any older siblings if needed, too! Every session is custom tailored to your desires.

Raleigh’s Best Baby Photographer | Baby Blythe

I’m happy to show off sweet baby Blythe to you all! She’s a beautiful baby with a beautiful name!

I met Blythe’s parents years back when I did maternity photos when they were expecting their first baby. And then I had the pleasure of having them in my Raleigh newborn photography studio when they delivered their first baby, Landis. I was so excited for them to be having another baby girl! And so excited to meet baby Blythe. She looks a lot like her big sister, and I could feel the love between the two of them. Landis held baby Blythe so sweetly and was super adoring of her. It was really touching to see.

Blythe’s newborn photo session was just amazing. She posed so beautifully, and all of my little hats and headbands looked adorable on her. I loved her on the pink and cream, and especially in my little baby bed. So many favorites from this Raleigh newborn session!

Durham Newborn Baby Photography | Baby Aashi

This ADORABLE baby girl is Aashi. She is so stunning! Her amazing head of hair and thick, long eyelashes are all to die for! I could have snuggled her for days!! She’s such a gem, and it was my absolute pleasure to welcome her into my Raleigh newborn photo studio when she was 15 days old.

I did Aashi’s Raleigh Durham baby photo session around Christmas time in 2019 (I’m a wee bit behind on blogging!). So you’ll see below some of the Christmas themed photos I took during her newborn photography session in December. Aashi’s mommy wanted lots of pink, but also some Christmas themed shots for their holiday cards. Since the weather in Raleigh is getting a little cooler now, maybe these photos will get us in the Christmas spirit! 🙂

Here are some of my many favorite photos from baby Aashi’s newborn session!

Raleigh Durham Baby Photographer | Baby Nico

Sweet baby boy Nico is next up on the blog! Gosh I love the name Nico! He is absolutely adorable and precious, and photographed so perfectly in my newborn photo studio. I adored little Nico and his family. He was a fresh seven days old when I met him and got to pose him. We did so many cute baby poses, and he was so good and sleepy – and happy!

If you’re interested in a newborn photo session like this, please contact me! I have openings for both full and mini newborn photo sessions. The full sessions offer more variety on poses and props, as well as including any older siblings and parents into some of the photos. If your budget is a little smaller, you may prefer a mini newborn session, which also takes place in my professional photo studio in Wake Forest, NC. These sessions still allow you to capture the memories of your baby being so itty bitty. We’ll do several poses, as well as some of those classic close up shots of fingers and toes, and even a prop shot or two! We can customize these photo sessions based on what you want! These are also perfect if you just need a few photos for a birth announcement.

Wake Forest and Raleigh Baby Photographer | Baby Owen

Tiny little Owen came in for his newborn session when he was about a month old. He was born six weeks early and had a brief NICU stay, so we had to wait until he was discharged and well enough to come and see me! But it was worth the wait! His big sister, Charlotte, who I also photographed as a baby, came along for the session too. I love the photos that she participated in with baby Owen, and she was just the perfect little model for me! The photo where Charlotte is looking at Owen, and Owen grins – my fave!! Made my heart melt! It was such a pleasure to see this family again! I loved meeting baby Owen, and his photos are gorgeous!

If you’re looking for a newborn baby photographer, and you reside in the Raleigh, Wake Forest, Durham, Chapel Hill, Youngsville, or Rolesville areas, I would love to hear from you!

Raleigh Durham Newborn Photographer | Baby Lucas

Another baby Lucas! I love the name Lucas, and I can tell it’s popular because this might have been my third Lucas for 2019. One of the perks of being in the business of newborn photography is staying in the know with the trends for baby names! 🙂 I think Lucas and Emma might have been my top two for 2019!

Little Lucas comes from an Army family, just like I do! I’m an army brat, so I love welcoming families who have served in the military just like my father did. I have a few little Army themed props, like a super cute baby hat (as you’ll see below) that got put to good use with Lucas. His family was the sweetest, and his big sister was SO cute! Check out her curls (swooning!). Mom and Dad brought along their army boots for a full-on Army setup, as requested by Mom! It was really cute!

Baby Lucas was absolutely adorable at 8 days old in my Wake Forest studio. I loved his tiny little toes and perfect little face, which of course I photographed excessively. I love capturing all the teeny little details of each baby. He was a joy to photograph. Here is a look at some of my favorite photos from his newborn session!

If you’re looking for a newborn baby photographer for 2020, and you reside in the Raleigh, Wake Forest, Durham, Chapel Hill, Youngsville, or Rolesville areas, please reach out to me!

Wake Forest and Rolesville Newborn Photography | Baby Charlie

I’m back with another beautiful baby girl! My blog has been on the back burner lately after a whirlwind Christmas, New Year’s, snow storms, photo sessions, kid’s sports ramping back up, and general life stuff. I’ve been shooting a ton and have so many beautiful newborns that need to be in the spotlight here on the blog.

I loved having the opportunity to meet baby Charlie a few months ago. Her name is just about as cute as she is. I just love it! She had beautiful creamy skin, and just the right amount of chub to make her such a pretty baby! She came into my studio at nine days old, and was just so perfect to pose. Her parents were so excited and had that glow and awe that first time parents do. They adore her so much.

I loved my time with this family, and loved snuggling and posing baby Charlie. Here’s a little sample of what her session gallery looked like!

Raleigh and Wake Forest Family Photography Mini Sessions

This fall I offered family mini photo sessions again! As you all know, my primary focus is usually on newborn baby photography, however I have on occasion offered some family session events from time to time. This fall felt like a good time to get back to that! I held the mini sessions at a gorgeous park in Raleigh, and the weather, the families, and the scenery were all amazing.

My family mini sessions are great for an updated family photo, some updated shots of your children, holiday card photos, or even as a Baby’s First Year session. They typically result in 15-20 digital files, plus black and white versions as well. They’re short and sweet, and as simple as can be!

This first family I want to share with you came to my mini session event the last time I held them. This year they brought along the grandparents, as well as their new dog. Their family portraits turned out so spectacular, I just love them!

And this next family just reminds me so much of my own family with their three boys. I just saw them last winter for the youngest child’s newborn portrait session. I enjoyed my time catching up with them, and seeing how blessed their lives are!

If you’d like to get on my mailing list to be informed of my next round of family mini sessions, please reach out to me at melissadevoephotography@gmail.com. Or if you’d like to inquire about a newborn photo session, or a baby milestone session, please let me know!
